INTRODUCTION UltraBeam produced its first antenna in 2008. Since then there was a progressive and continuous improvement in design and manufacturing of antennas, below the main innovations are listed: - 2008 dual-driver circuitry to optimize spacing (necessary on some models) - 2009 VRS System to improve reliability compared to spring-belt retraction systems - 2010 Engine mounts with direct connection to the elements for a complete mechanical seal - 2016 RCU-06 digital controller with color touch display...
1) BOOM ASSEMBLY UltraBeam uses a square boom of section 60 x 60 x 3 mm for most models of antennas. Only the heavier models are equipped with sections of 80 x 80 x 3 mm or 4 The boom may have 1 to 4 junctions depending on the model. Only the „2 elements Yagis“...

BOOM Guying Most UltraBeam models don‘t need any tie rope, the square section boom on models with a boom length within 6 meters offer a very high stiffness and remain perfectly straight. Only models with boom lengths over 9 meters include a guying kit for the boom. Models that have boom guying: UB640-VL3.4 ...
5) ELECTRICAL WIRING The electrical wiring, built and assembled by UltraBeam, is the best solution for electric connection between the antenna and the electronic controller. In these cases, the antenna motor units will be equipped with multi-pole female connectors. Simply plug in the connectors to the motor unit and the DB25 to the controller. This avoids any chance of operating errors and guarantees high reliability over time.
